Hi Gang, after reading a few post about jobs, i thought i would say this to the new pilots looking for work, or thinking about getting into the industry, Chin Up.Very simply over 85% of first time pilots jobs are NOT advertised !! We have not advertised on here for years, and its the only place we look for pilots, that's just because we have a constant supply of CV turn up, followed by some of them dropping in, and when the times is right someone gets a gig with us. and this is the same for all the other companies mostly. Thats why you don't see lots of job advertised.

In saying that i am currently doing my ppl (h) and may move upto my cpl over time.

The question i have is, what are other good endoresements experiences to get under your belt to help you get work after completeing a cpl?

Your first job will most likely be in an R44, so I would suggest doing the last 20 hours and your flight test in that.

Other ratings and items that are useful but won't entirely break the bank are;

- Dangerous goods certificate (must have)- Current ASIC- Low level- External load/sling- Night VFR- ATPL and IREX written exams- Save your money on any turbine training unless you are targeting a specific company that say operates bell longrangers or jetrangers and perhaps do a few hours in one (as just one example).
